We had a wonderful stay here, thanks to the owners who went above and beyond to ensure we had everything we needed. The room was spacious, clean, and very comfortable. The location is perfect, being right next to Porto Badisco and within walking distance of several delicious restaurants. We also enjoyed relaxing in their peaceful garden, which added to the overall tranquility of our experience. Thank you so much!

Great small town Italy vibes Perfect for a family or friends who want their own room and bathroom but all still be in the same spot Parking was perfect Breakfast was simple but very fresh. Get to order what you would like each morning Super close to the water and local restaurants and cafes. Good base to visit other places in Puglia Highly recommend staying here instead of the larger towns like Otranto

Lovely B&B - super comfortable. Having a coffee machine was a nice touch, as was the drying rack for our room, since we were caught in a thunderstorm and arrived soaking wet! A lovely signora came to give us bottled water and make sure we knew how to use the coffee machine and the next morning she set up a delicious breakfast in the courtyard for us. The host was very responsive and helpful in messaging when we had questions too.

Located in a quiet area, this B&B is well lit, clean and comfortable. Our room very peaceful and clean with a great bathroom. We slept well on the comfortable bed. Our host Gianluca was very helpful and checkin was easy to understand. Breakfast was delicious and Anna Rita was also helpful and a lovely lady.

Clean. Easy to find. Walking distance to multiple bays. Very friendly bar/food store just around the corner. If you don’t need sea view, but are happy with a small accommodation in a small village, this is a great place to stay. Drink some beers on the rocks, enjoy the Italian conversations in the background…

Not much. Definitely value for money.

Loved the courtyard. The rooms were new and good.

The coffee machine. ! A kettle would be easier, plus there weren't many coffee pods and we couldn't find any more in the local shop/cafe.

Very close to a beautiful swimming spot and a lovely delicatessen and bar in Porto Badisco. This property is within close driving distance to Otranto and several other excellent spots close by like Zinzulusa and Santa Cesarea Terme. Staff were very helpful & responsive. Great modern locking system at the property, very clean and on-site parking was appreciated.
